Overview
About Me
I’m a very chill and friendly guy who tries to work as little as possible and enjoy as much as possible. I grew up in a very small village in North-East Italy, to then move to Padua for my studies, to Barcelona for my Erasmus, to Bologna for love and, finally to Munich **cough cough** for money **cough cough**. I’ve almost aways lived in WGs (a very magical German word that means shared-flat). I enjoy the communal living and the opportunity to come back home and find people with whom you vibe to have dinner together, talk about stuff or just spend some time together.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like traveling but I also grew quite tired of the copy-paste experience of visiting touristic destinations, see the same places everyone sees and go back home. Lately I tried volunteering while traveling and, that's why I'm here, couchsurfing. This changed my perspective quite a bit and gave me completely different vibes (almost exclusively in a positive way). The pleasure of meeting people from around the world is long lasting and the memories of traveling, that almost inevitably are more personal in this way, are deeply valued.
